Welcome to planDisney, Carolyn, and thank you for your family's service. It sounds like you'll be at
Walt Disney World Resort quicker than Mickey can salute, so let's look at ways to activate military tickets for your party.
I chatted with a fabulous Cast Member named Peggy Ann who said ticket activation would depend on the type of military tickets you purchased. If they are
Disney Military Salute Tickets, the service member who bought them must be present at activation, along with the guests assigned to those tickets. It's crucial to bring along a
valid military ID, as this is a key requirement for the activation process.
Since a military member can only purchase five additional tickets, you might also have bought
Magic Your Way tickets. Those tickets only require theme park reservations; no activation or military ID is needed to scan in.
The staff at
Shades of Green might be able to offer details about this question or future concerns. This resort is exclusively available to our military guests, and they also sell theme park tickets. Feel free to call them anytime if you need help or advice.
I hope your family can enjoy the
Flag Retreat at
Magic Kingdom Park during your visit. This moving ceremony brings out the patriot in everyone, so check for the time in your mobile app. Tap the search icon at the bottom of your screen and type "Flag Retreat" to see details. I'm getting chills remembering the last time my husband and I watched this on Main Street, USA.
Carolyn, I'm wishing on a star that your trip is full of magical memories. Please stop by
planDisney anytime! Mickey and I are so grateful for your family's sacrifice and service.
Magic awaits,
Elaine
